Working From Home Is Great... I Gained 25lbs... Help!

Yeah, you have the point but the reason why many people prefer to work at home because the time is yours, the place is yours. There's no place to work comfortable than at home.

Working from will surely lead you also to more eating. It requires discipline.

Hey Lee! One of the reasons people gain weight working from home deals with the amount of time spent in a computer chair.

At work, you'd get up to go to the bathroom, walk to the fax machine or printer, go talk to a coworker, ask your boss a question, or go on break.

At home, its easy to sit in the same chair for hours on end without getting up!

Set a timer to go off every hour. Then get up and walk around the house for 15 minutes. Then, when you sit down, set it to go off in another 60 minutes, etc.

Take baby steps to get the weight off. Working from home is hard enough as it is - trying to change everything about yourself at once just gets overwhelming and makes it much more difficult than it needs to be.

Best of luck to you!

If you can, you might want to consider
investing in the Wii Fit System.

I purchased a Wii for my kids last
year and they love it.

When looking for more games for
them I came across Wii Fit and
I tried it out. Best $100 I ever
spent!

It's fun and I don't "feel" as if I'm working
out.

Get a gym membership and try to go at least once a day during the week, it's a nice break and gets you out around other people

I can empathize. I took some time off from work to build a website and have gained 20 lbs. I've never had so much difficulty getting motivated to exercise in my life. But I turned it around, forced myself to get back into jogging and have started on a diet regimen called intermittent fasting, which is kind of intense, but working very well.

better than the wii, is the xbox kinect. look it up, it's badass!

Yeah Working at home.

There are tendency that if you work at home you gain money and you gain more weight too... Lol

Anyway, try different exercise.

Hey Lee,
Don't worry.Loosing wait may be tough but not impossible at all.At first You just have to motivated your mind to loose up your weight.Try to avoid junk foods like burger,chips,cola,pizza and those foods which contains a lot of calories and high fat.Eat green vegetables and try to walk regularly by maintaining a daily routine.I'm also a website worker and it never provides on my health.Just make a chart on diet,working,exercising and maintain that regularly.Don't give up.Try babes....just try...

Sam

You need to set a specific time for exercise, and stick to your ROUTINE. Problem with ROUTINES is that it's pretty boring, so you may want to get a PARTNER.

Good suggestions so far, here are mine...

I had many struggles working from home (proximity of refrigerator to desk, dogs barking, wife and kids, TV, etc...). I rented office space about 5 years ago and although my office space is quite expensive (I own a Real Estate company too), you can find single room office space in large multi-tenant buildings for about $200-300 per month, or utilize shared office space. Having this type of working environment had made a tremendous difference in my work ethic.

I think having dedicated (outside of home) work space makes it easier to differentiate between work and home task and screw off time. I plan certain tasks to do for the day and then I go home, no figuring out other stuff to do at the office so I am there for 8 hours, do what I planned to do and then free time! (Call of Duty Black Ops, anyone?)

On the weight-gain front, I would highly suggest a paleo eating lifestyle such as The Primal Blueprint by Mark Sisson. This is an excellent program which has enabled me to drop a bunch of weight, feel better and still eat a bunch of crap! (so to speak).

Additionally, (this one is obvious) exercise is important to everyone, especially keyboard campers, so I would also suggest some type of exercise. Could be as simple as taking daily walks (as some have suggested), to some simple kettlebell routines that take minutes per day, to following along with some of the awesome products put out by Beachbody (I have used their stuff for years).

One important note about working out, DON"T think about work-stuff while exercising, focus on what you are doing and how you are appreciating your body. Exercise is one of the best stress reducers and adding stress while trying to reduce stress doesn't mix. Personally, I keep a pad and pencil nearby so if a stray thought enters my head while exercising about some marketing idea, a solution to a problem or something, I can jot it down, clear my head, and get back to what I am doing without losing the thought. For me, these epiphanies always seem to happen during exercise, driving and showers, as the Boy Scouts say, "Be Prepared".


Peace out Dudes,

You do need to get into a good routine. I find that too, when I am at home working, I really need to force myself sometimes to go out and do something! I find a good gym is useful, go there, and do some exercise you enjoy! You see other people exercising and it helps with motivation. Or go for that power walk! If you can do it first thing in the morning it is ideal as you loose more weight in the morning and it gets you going for the day.

See how good it feels to get your body moving!

& eat more fresh foods, veges, fruit and low fat meats, etc. Lots of advice on the internet on eating well.

Good luck, keep enjoying
